Chapter 182: Tang Dou Cao Cao Cooks Wine and Discusses Heroes

This time Tang Dou walked to the street, but it was majestic, and ten healthy soldiers surrounded Tang Dou's carriage and drove towards Cao Cao's palace, and the pedestrians on the road looked sideways, which was definitely more majestic than the last time when Qin Aiguo's big Audi drove into the compound of the Second Artillery's family. ๏ผ‹

Before arriving at Cao Cao's palace, the family of the car grabbed the horse and was about to ask Tang Dou to get out of the car, when a general on duty in front of the palace walked over quickly, and asked: "Dare to ask the car is the Marquis of Jincheng." โ€

Tang Dou raised the curtain of the car and poked his head out and replied, "Exactly, what does the general command." โ€

The general hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "Please forgive the Hou Ye for the inconvenience of saluting in the armor of the last general, the prime minister ordered, the Hou Ye does not need to pass through the mansion, and the carriage and horse can go directly to the Tingzheng Palace, Hou Ye please." โ€

With that, the general flashed to the side, ordered the guards in front of the door to get out of the way, and motioned for Tang Dou's driver to drive straight.

There is no need to pass through, the carriage and horse go directly to the palace of listening, this is Cao Cao's courtesy to the favored ministers and Cao Pi and other princes, and only a limited two or three people such as Xun Yu have won such an honor.

Under the respectful gaze of everyone, Tang Dou's carriage and horse went straight to the outside of the Tingzheng Palace, Tang Dou got out of the car, and there was already an inner attendant who greeted him, who was also serving Cao Cao on the Tongque Platform yesterday.

The chamberlain walked quickly to Tang Dou, bowed down and said, "The servant Dong Lun has seen the Marquis of Jincheng. The prime minister is now in the Wenchang Palace, and the prime minister has instructed that if the Hou Ye comes, he can go directly to the Wenchang Hall to meet and ask the Hou Ye to come with the slaves. โ€

Listening to the government hall is the place where Cao Cao deals with the government, the Wenchang hall is where Cao Cao deals with daily things, Cao Cao usually rests and receives most of the ministers in the Wenchang Palace, and it is not a little special to receive Tang Dou here.

Under the guidance of Dong Lun, Tang Dou followed him to Wenchang Palace, and after Dong Lun was clear, he withdrew. smiled at Tang Dou and said, "Marquis Jincheng, the prime minister invites you in." โ€

Tang Dou smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, little brother." โ€

Casually, a large gold ingot fell into Dong Lun's hands.

After Dong Lun saw that there was a gold ingot in his hand, his eyebrows and eyes smiled brighter than a chrysanthemum, and the dog-legged helped Tang Dou push open the door of the palace, and said with a charming smile: "Master Hou, please." โ€

Tang Dou smiled and walked into the Wenchang Palace.

Although Tang Dou is not deeply involved in the world. But he also knows that he has to have a good relationship with the people close to the high-ranking officials, just like the eunuch Dong Lun in front of him, although his status is humble, but there is no doubt that he is one of the closest people around Cao Cao except for his wife and concubines, and sometimes his words are probably more effective than the words of some ministers.

In the hall, Cao Cao was reclining on the couch and spitting out clouds and mist, and when he saw Tang Dou coming in, he just beckoned, and said to Tang Dou: "Zidou come and sit." โ€

Tang Dou frowned slightly and walked towards Cao Cao. He said angrily: "Prime Minister, didn't I say it, this medicine must not be taken when the headache is really unbearable." โ€

Cao Cao smiled and waved his hand, took another sip, and then reluctantly put down the big smoking gun and said with a smile: "It's okay, I can control myself." It's just that I felt a little irritated about dealing with Chang'an's affairs just now, so I took a breath to relax. I'll do it in moderation. โ€

As he spoke, Cao Cao sat up. looked at Tang Dou and said, "Zidou is still satisfied with that mansion." โ€

Tang Dou hugged his fists and saluted: "Thank you for the reward below." โ€

Cao Cao laughed and patted the couch and said: "It's just a mansion, why worry about it, Zidou come and sit, you and I have a long talk." โ€

Tang Dou thanked him and didn't shirk it, sat on Cao Cao's couch, looked at Cao Cao and told again: "The prime minister's head disease only needs to take the pills I gave you on weekdays." Although those pills work slowly, they are not harmful to the body......"

Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I just felt annoyed before I took a sip, and I will never smoke it indiscriminately in the future, and I also know my body." Fear...... Hehe, don't talk about that. โ€

Tang Dou shook his head helplessly, and said in his heart that the more you say this, the more I'm afraid you won't be able to control yourself, forget it, anyway, your time is running out, as long as it can relieve your pain, let you smoke enough.

Cao Cao looked at Tang Dou, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Zidou, the weapon you took out yesterday is quite amazing, can you lend me a trick to play with?" โ€

Tang Dou smiled, took out a crossbow from his sleeve and handed it to Cao Cao, but secretly closed the insurance.

Cao Cao fiddled with it for a long time, amazed at the delicacy of his opponent's crossbow, but he also questioned the short crossbow arm, how could such a slender crossbow arm fire such a powerful crossbow arrow.

Tang Dou's general shape of the hand crossbow is still very similar to the hard crossbow of the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao has been in battle for a long time, and naturally the construction principle of the opponent's crossbow is also very clear, he fiddled for a while, suddenly raised the hand crossbow, put his finger on the trigger, aimed around, aimed at the pillar in the hall and pulled the trigger.

Two pulls were made, the trigger moved only slightly, and the crossbow bolt did not come out of the magazine.

Cao Cao sighed, lowered his head and studied for a long time, and finally gave up.

Cao Cao handed the crossbow back to Tang Dou, and said with some schadenfreude: "Zidou, your hard crossbow is broken." โ€

Tang Dou smiled slightly and took the crossbow, but said in his mouth: "Yes, I'll take a look." โ€

As he spoke, Tang Dou unknowingly opened the safety on the crossbow, and the infrared sight immediately shot out a red line, and the red dot fell on the pillar that Cao Cao was aiming at just now.

Cao Cao opened his mouth wide in surprise, looked at his forehead and asked, "Why is it in your hands again?" โ€

As he spoke, Cao Cao stretched out his hand to Tang Dou again, and Tang Dou didn't mind handing the crossbow to Cao Cao, but he closed the insurance with a hook of his thumb.

I have to guard against it, who knows if Cao Cao will take this crossbow and launch it at himself, Tang Dou has no confidence that he will start to fly away through the ring the moment Cao Cao pulls the trigger.

Cao Cao fiddled for a while, and finally gave up, he handed the crossbow back to Tang Dou, and said with a smile: "Zidou, your crossbow is very interesting, can you draw me a copy of the construction drawing of this crossbow, and when I get back, I will imitate it for fun, it must be much more convenient to use this weapon to hunt in the countryside than a strong bow and a hard crossbow." โ€

Tang Dou smiled, Cao Cao is worried about the manufacturing process of his crossbow, if he is allowed to imitate it. I'm afraid that he will not imitate one or two, and I am afraid that Cao Cao's hunting object will not be those pheasants and hares.

Tang Dou thought for a while, looked at Cao Cao and said: "Prime Minister, it's not that I cherish my broom, it's really that the material used to make this thing is not something that ordinary skilled craftsmen can make. I'm afraid that without hundreds of catties of strength on my arm, I can't break this crossbow arm. โ€

As he spoke, Tang Dou removed the crossbow arm made of special steel and put it in front of Cao Cao.

Cao Cao is a brave man, when he was a captain of the Xiao Cavalry, he dared to stab Dong Zhuo with a sharp blade, at this time, he naturally didn't believe that Tang Dou's slender crossbow arm even broke him and didn't move, and he took the crossbow arm in his hand without believing it, and his arms competed, hey, the crossbow arm was just bent and bounced back immediately.

Cao Cao was dumbfounded, and said curiously: "What kind of steel is this thing made of?" โ€

Tang Dou smiled and put the crossbow arm back. He opened his crossbow arm with the machine, took the crossbow arrows dug up by the guards and reloaded them, then looked at Cao Cao and said: "This arm is smelted from meteorites outside the sky, and it is difficult to find in the world. โ€

There is no way, I can only spray nonsense, I can't tell Cao Cao that this is special steel, and how many processes need to be passed to refine it from iron, right? With the metallurgical technology of the Three Kingdoms period, even if he told Cao Cao the method. Cao Cao may not be able to create a batch of special steel against the times.

Then again, Tang Dou children's shoes don't know how to make special steel. Even if you go back and find out the process on the Internet, it is just talk on paper, and how difficult it is to produce it in this Three Kingdoms era can only be explained by an extraterrestrial meteorite.

Hearing Tang Dou's explanation, Cao Cao was relieved.

It should only exist in the sky, and if it could be imitated casually, he would be surprised.

If this kind of unguardable weapon is only in Tang Dou's hand, there is such a one. Then Cao Cao is not worried.

I don't, then Sun Quan and Liu Bei will also not have, when the two sides fight, they still rely on their wisdom and the courage of the soldiers, if they only fight these two points, Cao Cao is confident that he will complete his great cause of reunification in his lifetime.

Cao Cao put his mind at ease. instructed the waiter to cook wine, and sat on the couch with Tang Dou to talk about heaven and earth.

Tang Dou was also willing to talk to Cao Cao about this topic, and he also wanted to get a closer look at the thoughts of this first-generation traitor who had been praised and degraded in Chinese history for nearly two thousand years.

Gradually, Tang Dou was attracted by Cao Cao's witty conversation, and gradually heard the grand ambition in Cao Cao's chest, and couldn't help but fall into contemplation.

"My continuous conquest is for a long-term peace, only by destroying all the princes and unifying the world, can the common people live and work in peace and contentment, and be free from the suffering of war......"

"The big-eared thief seems to be loyal but treacherous, unscrupulous in order to achieve his ends, and he wants to put on a compassionate appearance, ashamed to be called by him. You see, the big-eared thief minted a straight hundred and five baht for plundering the wealth of the people, and Sun Quan Xiao'er followed suit, and even minted a straight thousand five baht and other big coins, and I am planning to abolish the five baht, implement barter, and return the wealth to the people, so as to avoid the people from being plundered......"

"Sun Quan is a child in a safe corner, has no ambitions, and has no strategy, so there is no need to worry. If I am Sun Quan's child, in the battle of Weishu and Hanzhong, I will definitely send troops to Jingxiang, Liu Bei will definitely have no time to look around, get Jingxiang and watch the Central Plains, if I am defeated in Hanzhong, I can drive straight into Chang'an to cut off my retreat, and another division will go around Xuzhou to take Xuchang, I will be defeated, but Xiao'er is taking this opportunity, stupid, will only use some small tricks......"

"I want to stabilize the country, but the internal strife is endless, and I am growing stronger, and I have more than enough strength to do it, and I am sad to call me ......"

Listening to Cao Cao's tirade, Tang Dou's brows furrowed.

Most of the Three Kingdoms theories in later generations are based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, in which Liu Bei is the positive and Cao Cao is the opposite, and now listening to Cao Cao's words, Tang Dou feels that the world may really misinterpret Cao Cao.

Although Cao Cao was not a loyal minister, Tang Dou found that Cao Cao had a compassionate heart.

War, just for the sake of not fighting after the war.

Whether it is right or wrong can only be left to future generations to comment.

Cao Cao just did what he wanted to do, and what he thought should be done, and he lived clearly and thoroughly. (To be continued.) )
